Is this the place that they promised us
'cause it feels more like paradise lost
For everything we take from ya
in return we'll give you Arcadia
But it feels like something has gone wrong
'cause everything they promised us is gone
or was it ever here, no, when I look around it's oh so clear
that we're in decay and we search to find a better way
Oh God, I've lost my patience waiting and waiting for a better day to come
My outrage is only futile never understood by smiling faces of the blind
And we're in decay and we search to find a better way
How should I feel when it seems like my whole life I've been lied to my whole life
I've done everything you asked of me but paradise is surrounded by misery
And it's in decay and we search to find a better way
Sometimes well you get what you paid for
And you know sometimes that's not a lot
Sometimes well you'll get what you paid for
To bad you know your life's not worth a lot
We're in a state of decay
'cause it feels more like paradise lost
For everything we take from ya
in return we'll give you Arcadia
But it feels like something has gone wrong
'cause everything they promised us is gone
or was it ever here, no, when I look around it's oh so clear
that we're in decay and we search to find a better way
Oh God, I've lost my patience waiting and waiting for a better day to come
My outrage is only futile never understood by smiling faces of the blind
And we're in decay and we search to find a better way
How should I feel when it seems like my whole life I've been lied to my whole life
I've done everything you asked of me but paradise is surrounded by misery
And it's in decay and we search to find a better way
Sometimes well you get what you paid for
And you know sometimes that's not a lot
Sometimes well you'll get what you paid for
To bad you know your life's not worth a lot
We're in a state of decay
